I'm here because I like Tcl! :)

Other languages I like are: C, Scheme, SmallTalk, FORTH, Joy.

I'm the author of '''The Jim Interpreter'''. A small footprint implementation of the Tcl
programming languages with more support for functional programming and other differences.
You can find more information about Jim in the [Jim] page of this wiki or
in the Jim home page at http://jim.berlios.de

'''Tclwise'''

I'm writing a book about Tcl programming. Many chapters are online for free, you
can find it at http://www.invece.org/tclwise/.

'''Random Stuff'''

[Genetic Programming]

[Advantages of Tcl over Lisp]

[parsing expressions]

[cfile] - object based file I/O for Tcl.

The Tcl IRCd is a little IRC server I wrote in Tcl, the home page and source code are at [http://www.hping.org/tclircd].

[Odys Object System]

The [regmap] function may be more secure (against malicious user input) and clean
than the usual regsub+subst way, at least some time. Please tell me if something
like this is already in some well known library.

[Syncronized timer]

A different design for Tcl-like languages, with first-class functions: [Functions As Values]

A let for Tcl: [let2] (the let wiki page was already used).

References for Tcl: [Tcl References in Tcl] (updated version, and C implementation under development)

A Joy stackless/tailrecursive compiler/VM written in Tcl: [A Joy implementation in Tcl]

[lsplit] is a useful command ripped from the [Joy] programming language.

[Tcl_Obj types list]

[Alists for Tcl]

[TclRef]

[eDonkey]

[etprof]

[Sugar]

[ptparser]

[Arity corner cases in math commands] (about TIP 174).

[Gimp Client]

[Range]

[Permutations]

[bindlife]

[Tip187 in pure Tcl]

[hping3]

[set operations for Tcl lists]

Tk code to handle the keyboard in a raw mode. Useful for games or to control real hardware. Uses a trick, don't know if it will
work in future or past version of Tcl.

 namespace eval RawKeys {}
 set ::RawKeys::Flag 0
 set ::RawKeys::LastEvent {-1 0 -1}
 set ::RawKeys::Delay 50

 proc ::RawKeys::Init {userPressHandler userReleaseHandler} {
     bind . <KeyPress> [list ::RawKeys::pressHandler %k $userPressHandler]
     bind . <KeyRelease> [list ::RawKeys::releaseHandler %k $userReleaseHandler]
 } 
 
 proc ::RawKeys::pressHandler {keycode userHandler} {
     variable LastEvent
     variable Delay
     variable Flag
     set Flag 1
     set deliver 1
     if {[lindex $LastEvent 0] == $keycode && \
         ([clock clicks -milliseconds] - [lindex $LastEvent 2]) < $Delay} {
         set deliver 0
     }
     set LastEvent [list $keycode 1 [clock clicks -milliseconds]]
     if {$deliver} {
         $userHandler $keycode
     }
 }   
 
 proc ::RawKeys::releaseHandler {keycode userHandler} {
     variable LastEvent
     variable Delay
     variable Flag
     set deliver 1
     set Flag 0
     set LastEvent [list $keycode 0 [clock clicks -milliseconds]]
     update
     if {$Flag} {
         set deliver 0
     }
     if {$deliver} {
         $userHandler $keycode
     }
 }
